Port Metro Container Truck Drivers Issue Work Stop Notice

Reuters – Vancouver container truck drivers have issued a 48-hour stop work notice to authorities at Canada's busiest port over a long-running dispute related to pay and service levels. The United Truckers Association of British Columbia (UTA), a non-profit group representing union and non-union drivers, said many of its 1,400 drivers will walk off the job on Wednesday, disrupting the flow of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of goods and commodities through Western Canada.
